Any progress on this? If needed I can help . I can make a 3D scan and mail the original back within a week.

I will do so. Thanks!

I started the restoration of my own Esprit S1. Looking for the chassis number. But I see nothing at the place indicated. Only rust  Can anybody confirm that the number was really there? A detailed picture how it should look? Dimensions? Thanks a lot in advance!!

After speaking with Renn yesterday. I discovered under the carpet indeed two more bolts (each side) about a metre forward of the seat belt bolts. I will try to remove these this evening. Now I understand why I kept lifting the complete car of the ground. Not an easy job, when you do it for the first time.

Last year I bought an Esprit S1. What I thought was going to be a fast flip over, turns out to be a little bit more work . For days I am trying to lift the body. I removed: 3 bolts (in the back) two seat belt bolts (cockpit) two bolts (cockpit) connected to the front suspension, 4 bolts (cockpit) of the pedal box the flexible steering joint two bolts (in the front) to the radiator frame (I did not remove the front suspensions bolts. There are huge clearance holes cut around them.) I tried to jack the body off, but nothing . The complete chassis is coming of the ground. What did I forget? Any advice would be very appreciated.
